Definitions
- Device for depositing a fluid material corresponding manipulator and method for implementing the device.
- the present invention relates to the deposition of a curable fluid or viscous material. It relates primarily to a device for measuring and regulating the flow of a fluid or viscous material.
- the device comprises an opening for supplying fluid to a cavity delimited by walls.
- the cavity contains a means of controlling the movement of the material towards an outlet orifice of the cavity.
- the fluid flow control technique is known (see for example French patents FR 1074 689 and FR 1 323 988). These known devices for measuring and regulating a flow do not allow the hardenable fluid material to be deposited on the workpiece. In addition, these known devices are bulky and heavy, which hinders the use or boarding by a manipulator such as human or robotized. So when removing the material following a complex shape spatial curve.
- the device according to the invention has an outlet orifice which opens into a dispensing nozzle secured to the walls of the cavity.
- the drive means is a gear whose axis of each pinion is substantially perpendicular to the axis of the outlet opening of the cavity.
- the drive means is actuated by a motor, notably an electric motor.
- the flow is proportional to the rotation of the gear, therefore to that of the electric motor whose controlled rotation allows the flow to be measured.
- the device comprises two pressure taps, one of which is upstream and the other downstream of the cavity.
- the walls of the cavity are heated, for example by means of cartridge housed in holes, a heating plate was added to the device or an element was fixed heater for positioning the nozzle, the motor and / or a manipulator on the device according to the invention.
- the nozzle comprises an extrusion orifice comprising at its end a closing and opening valve which can be adjustable, which makes it possible to obtain a zero cavity, that is to say without material in contact with the outside which would risk harden and seal the nozzle.
- the invention also relates to a manipulator, in particular a robot of the type comprising a movable body on which is mounted an articulated arm having at its end a rotating wrist secured to a fluid delivery gun, said gun comprising a feed opening in fluid from a cavity delimited by at least one wall, said cavity containing a gear for driving the fluid towards an outlet orifice, in which the gun conforms to the aforementioned device.
- a manipulator in particular a robot of the type comprising a movable body on which is mounted an articulated arm having at its end a rotating wrist secured to a fluid delivery gun, said gun comprising a feed opening in fluid from a cavity delimited by at least one wall, said cavity containing a gear for driving the fluid towards an outlet orifice, in which the gun conforms to the aforementioned device.
- the subject of the invention is also a method for depositing a curable fluid or viscous material, the deposition being carried out by the flow of the material in a nozzle characterized in that the material is heated then the measurement and regulation are carried out. flow rate of said flow material.
- FIG. 1 schematically represents, in perspective view, an installation for depositing material comprising a device and a manipulator according to the invention.
- FIG. 2 shows, in sectional view, the device used in this installation.
- - Fig. 3 is a partially cutaway elevation view of the device cavity.
- the installation shown in Fig. 1 includes a robot 1 handling a dispensing gun 2.
- the gun 2 is supplied with foaming material m, via a flexible conduit 3, by a piston pump 4 disposed on a barrel 5 constituting a reservoir.
- the gun 2 deposits the material m on the upper periphery 6 of a cylindrical object 7 fixed on a table 8.
- the robot 1 runs on slides 8.
- the robot 1 is provided with a wrist 9 for fixing the gun 2, said wrist 9 constituting the end of an arm 10 mounted on the body 11 of the robot 1.
- the body 11 is itself mounted on blanks 12, 13 fixed to a foot 14 rotating relative to a base 15.
- the robot comprises six articulations of axes a, b, c, d, e, f placed respectively at the junctions of the base 15 with the foot 14, of the blanks 12, 13 with the body 11, of the body 11 with the arm 10 , on the arm 10, at the junction of the arm 10 and the wrist 9 and on the wrist 9.
- the combination of these six articulations of respective axes a, b, c, d, e, f allows any positioning of the pistol 2 in space.
- the gun 2 comprises a housing 16 delimited by six flat walls 17.
- a wall has a supply opening 18; the facing wall has an outlet orifice 19 opening into a nozzle 20.
- An electric motor 21 controlled by an electronic variator e is fixed on a third wall 17.
- the nozzle 20 and the motor 21 are positioned on the housing 16 by means of a heating support element 22 consisting of three plates 22a, 22b, 22c arranged perpendicularly in space.
- the heating of the plates is obtained by two thermoregulated cartridges 23, 24.
- the hose 3 for supplying foaming material m is fixed to the supply opening 18 by a flange 25.
- a pipe 26 connects the outlet orifice 19 to the nozzle 20 through the heating plate 22a.
- Two pressure taps 27, 28 are mounted respectively on the flange 25 and the pipe outlet 26 in the nozzle 20.
- the nozzle 20 comprises a hollow conical extrusion orifice 29 closable by a rod 30 forming a valve and integral with a jack. pneumatic operation 31.
- a screw 32 located at the end of the jack 31 opposite the valve controls the opening of said valve.
- the housing 16 contains a gear formed by two pinions 33 and 34 which appears in FIG. 3.
- the pinion 33 is driven by means of the shaft 35 for transmitting the movement of the motor 21.
- the second pinion 34 is mounted on the shaft 36.
- the shafts 35 and 36 which are parallel to each other are mounted perpendicular to the orifice of exit 19.
- the foaming material m is pumped into the barrel 5 by the pump 4 which supplies the mobile gun 2 by the flexible conduit 3.
- the robot 1 positions and moves the extrusion orifice 29 integral with the gun 2.
- the flexibility of the conduit 3 allows the gun to be supplied at variable distances from the barrel 5.
- the product is driven towards the outlet orifice 19 by the rotation of the pinions 33, 34 of the gear.
- the pinion 34 is driven by the pinion 33 controlled in rotation by the motor, therefore the motor controls the flow.
- the robot gives the authorization to start the engine and to open the nozzle when it has brought the gun 2 into the working position. At this time, the foaming material flows at a controlled rate, which makes it possible to obtain the installation of a repetitive bead of foaming material.
- the installation is carried out by the displacement of the nozzle 20 by the robot 1 above the area to be covered.
- the cycle ends with the closure of the nozzle and the simultaneous stop of the motor controlled by the robot. Then the latter returns the gun 2 to its standby position.
- the use of an electric motor 21 provided with its control variator e makes it possible to vary the flow rate of foaming material m during a deposition cycle.
- the manipulator can be a motorized slide.
